1. Introduction

People teach what they most want to learn. Well, speaking as a retired La Leche League Leader, former psychotherapist and specialized kinesiologist I can tell you for sure, in the healing realm people teach what they want to know more about so they themselves will benefit.

2. Philosophy

When I was ten I taught a kid how to swim. What is so interesting is I knew the technique to teach it but I myself have never been much of a swimmer (even though I used to do it LOTS).
More to the point, a colleague described a not so mythical service called “Therapist’s Central” as the service that brings the clients who are dealing with what each therapist most wants or needs to learn to make his own life flow. You see, to be useful the therapist must stay a step ahead of the client in dealing with his own stuff in the very same area.

3. Lesson

You have likely heard me say or at least read my words, ”What you don’t know you don’t know is running your life.” Want to know what you don’t know you don’t know?

Simply look at your life. Look at who is in your life and the issues they have. Look at how your life runs each day and where you are on your path to your dream. (Do you still have a dream?)
You don’t have to be a therapist to attract people of like mind...which means people in the same or similar place in life.

4. Choice

When I say teach I do not necessarily mean in the classroom, You see, when your family and friends have the same issues (known or unknown) as you, and they come to you to unload or seek advice, you respond, right?

Now here is the thing, whatever you tell that person—listen for yourself. The words you speak as an advisor are also for your own ears, own heart and own soul. Yes, you are speaking what you most want to know. Only you had no idea you wanted to know it because it was out of your awareness, i.e., what you did not know you did not know.

5. Words

So pay attention to what you say out loud. Notice the words you choose to use for your friend or family member. Follow the advice you share, It didn’t come from nowhere. Your wisdom came from a deep place inside where you answers lie.

See? And you thought you were being a good friend. Well, you are being a good friend—to the other person and to yourself.
